...Why? Why did ANYONE think this was a good idea to do? WHY!?

This is what white people do, everyday in large and small ways to PoC. They antagonize and antagonize and antagonize you, it gives them a sense of false worth to feel better than. It’s their whole persona, being “better than”. “I may be poor, but at least I ain’t a nigger!” White people are fully aware of the…

I can no longer get my hopes up and I understand everything they are telling us. Everything.

Sadly, none of us are surprised.

I just came over from your “stealth” article and cannot believe this post has no comments. I am so sorry this happened to you. You were an adorable little kid and deserved none of it. Stay strong.

Preston, thank you so much for this piece. It is disgusting to think that somebody could be so careless and demonstrate such disregard for another person’s bodily and sexual autonomy. I am appalled at the lack sex education, respect and ignorance that people display. Stealthing is absolutely sexual assault, make no…

Also: thank you.

I receive this blessing. I’ve earned it.

I felt sorry for her too. Then I read (some) of the book and she’s a manipulator. But she has done great harm to Black America, yes. I do agree with that.

I feel sorry for Rachel Dolezal because I genuinely believe she had a traumatic childhood and has a mental illness. I’m also a little worried about her son and who has custody of him because Dolezal does not sound stable. Still, Dolezal did a great deal of harm to black America by basically advancing the false…

wait a minute, his crime back then was gun possession? That must be the single least arrestable crime in the US after spousal abuse.

LOL! I was of course being a little facetious in my comment, but your grandma sounds like a wise ol’ lady.

Shade will be thrown at her for this, of course—but I think it’s great. It’s a targeted approach to philanthropy that, rather than trying to be all things to all people, hones in on areas that resonate with her & that are relevant to the kind of creative thinking that helped create Lemonade.

We’ve been here before. All these fuckboys think they get to define, redefine, and define again, for the fifty-eleventh time, what constitutes racism. Surely whatever word he said won’t fit into that definition.

If Serena had ripped him apart and called him out for being a raging bigot and asshole it would have been fine, but her measured, strong, well crafted statement was even better. Way to take the high road and bury him nonetheless.

This is nothing new for Nastase. He threw a few slurs at Arthur Ashe during matches against him “way back when.”

For the record, I don’t give a damn about what products white people use in their hair. If that is your takeaway, then you’ve missed the point. Also, I cannot speak for other black people in Kinja, but I am not your ‘black people whisperer’. To the plethora of racists leaving comments, surely you have better things to…
